Convert String To Datetype, From Dd/mm/yyyy To Yyyy-mm-dd?
Jun 5, 2011
I need to ask your assistance in converting string to datetype, from 'dd/mm/yyyy' to 'yyyy-mm-dd'.The user could key in either the 'dd/mm/yyyy' format or 'yyyy-mm-dd' format in a textbox.the system would check for both format and convert both to the 'yyyy-mm-dd' date format, to be able to save the value in a datetype field in a MySQL table
I have developed a vb.net application, which searches for different kinds of dates from a document. When i test the app on my Windows 7, VS2010 PC, the dd/mm/YYYY date read as string is correctly converted to valid date format, and then it can perform followingfunctiontstimespan =Date.Now.Subtract(Convert.ToDateTime(DesiredMatch.Value)).DurationIt works fine on development PC. But when i test the application on my client PC having Windows XP, it throws an error 'string was not detrmined as valid date time windows'.
On one server now.date() gives date like '08/06/2012 00:00:00' and on other gives '6/8/2012 12:00:00 AM'. I need the date like '08/06/2012 00:00:00'. I can not use now.date.tostring("dd/MM/yyyy") as it is at too many places.
I need to get a date field from MM/dd/yyyy to yyyy/MM/dd in vb.net but it should still be a date field afterward so that I can match it against a date in a database.At the moment all I'm managing to do is to change it to a string in that format.I tried this type of code which also did not work.[code]
I'm trying to read dates stored in a Excel sheet, but they are in this format "dd/MM/yyyy" and when I choose a date from MonthCalendar1 it's in "MM/dd/yyyy" format! so I can't compare them together .. I have to make them in the same format ..I get this error when I write this code: (Conversion from string "27/06/2011" to type 'Date' is not valid.)My idea is to convert the "dd/MM/yyyy" to string and then to "MM/dd/yyyy"
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click Dim DateA As Date = Format(CDate("27/06/2011"), "MM/dd/yyyy") End Sub
I'm trying to convert the "29/09/2009" string to date format dd/mm/yyyy I'm using visual studio 2008, and i've tried the following:
dim sdate as string sdate = "29/09/2009" mydate = DateTime.Parse(sDate, Globalization.CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("el-GR")) and mydate = Date.Parse(sDate).ToShortDateString()
and i always get #9/29/2009# instead of #29/09/2009# that i want
Wondering if I can get aid in my dilemma; this app of mine I want it to display a string I've predefined in my code.
So inherently each day, a new text appears on the UI, next day something I've predefined appears etc. Each day a new variable (string) appears for the user.
I am manipulating xml with lots of date of birth. XMLs are already loaded onto datatable. The format we need is "dd/MM/yyyy" The dates are messy such as "dd-MM-yyyy" or "dd.MM.yyyy" so I am thinking to write a function that will auto correct on a set of predefined separators to a correct format. so I am thinking to do something like this but of course, this won't just work.i cannot use replace to replace an array. If i can just do that, everything would be fine. Hope someone can point out a way around. [code]
I need to convert a set of Julian Days into proper Date Time format dd/mm/yyyy HH:MM:SS Problem seems to be that they are Julian Days FROM a certain date, im assuming the standard 1970? Below is my code:
The file reads in parameters and two of the parameters used to be in Date Format YYYYMMDD but will now permanently be in format YYYY-MM-DD. This change, I believe, is stopping the import of the file from working. I would like to replace the new format YYYY-MM-DD back to YYYYMMDD in the code. If possible I'd also like to see some output so I know that the old format has been replaced with the new format. The code is below. I added the two rows with .replace code in green in expecting that to be enough but it is still not working.
Public Sub Main() Dim R1, O1, P1, C1, strDateFrom, strDateTo, strRunDate As String
But i want to Format in API instead of these steps: Go to : Controlpanel/Region and Language Option/Customize/date/Shortdateformat....

I'm currently working on some SSRS reports and the data I am getting comes in quite a range. I'm getting dates in forms of[code]...
I was hoping to be able to come up with a formatting code to use for the row so that it would convert any of these into the MM/dd/yyyy format and anything else just leave untouched. Unfortunately the scope of my VB skills do not compliment my objective.
I am sure when I used to add a DateTimepicker to a form by default it would show dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm which is good because that is what I want.Now for some reason and I cannot see how I changed this or how I change it back it appears as dd/mm/yyyy. how do I get it back to display the hh:mm as well as the dd/mm/yyyy.
